What about our Freedom? Sky BB porn filter to be enabled by default

Although, l do not watch anything like that - adult content. This is big brother telling us what we can and cannot do.

No problem arthur, just contact sky and advise them you wish to continue looking at T&A, and they'll sort you out. No freedoms impinged

I think Arthur meant to link to this: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-30896813?

And if need be there are ways around it other than phoning sky to tell them your a keen porn voyeur!

No need to phone.

Just go to the "My Sky" site and disable it ;)

It's so disgusting even you haven't heard of it.

And nor have I.

I've had BT's pr0n filters in place for months now. It's only thrown up one false positive in that time - I had to whitelist the annual Irn Bru carnival website before I could view it (its just a big indoor fairground at the SECC).

Just in case you are serious, the T is boobs and the A is your backside.

You object to Big Brother and you plan on voting Labour. :erm:

If you don't like Big Brother I'd recommend the Liberal Democrats or, possibly as it's unclear, UKIP. :)
